Desir-aster Turns to Happily Ever After

August 6, 2013 · In: ROMANCE, Uncategorized

IMG_0298

Oh Bachelorette Desiree, you are so incredibly lucky. It took only one quick television episode season for you to break your destructive love patterns. Many people NEVER do! She finally realized that it was a good idea to stop chasing the wet-noodle Brookses of the world and see the value of the solid Chrises. How many times did you have to date and be hurt by (or lose interest in) the same type of person until you saw the pattern and broke it? Do you think the producers coached that outta her or what? Where were MY producers???

Didn’t it feel like you were watching a different show last night-as in Desiree was a completely different person? She had feelings and wasn’t constantly deferring to her “cue-card-esque” monologue about each guy (except for one short clip). She had a personality, conviction and opinions. Love it.

So the biggest stomach twister for my Chris and I watching last night was, “How is Desiree going to explain her thought process about choosing Chris after she spent days (maybe weeks) crying over Brooks and telling Brooks she loved him?” Well, I was satisfied with how she addressed it. She really did finally understand that she deserved love. She was ready for mature love and I felt that her relationship with Drew was too superficial. It made sense when after the Brooks incident, she was unable to connect to Drew-Drew just wasn’t on that level with her. Poor guy. NOT. Drew will be fine! Those great looks, sweet attitude and love for his handicapped sister make him pretty much perfect. Maybe Neil Lane will help him with a ring down the line.

Alright…now how about the NEW Bachelor, Jaun Pablo? Juan Pablo Galavis Announced As New ‘Bachelor’ For Season 18 In the After The Rose Special, reports Huff Post TV. Is he going to find a mother for his beloved daughter Camilla? We all had a feeling it was going to be him. I loved how he sincerely asked Desiree in the ‘Guys Tell All’ episode why she never took him on a one-on-one date. That sealed the deal for me-he is real and he was trying. Sorry, Juan Pablo for Desiree making you just a Venezuelan boy-toy. Next season on The Bachelor, you’re going to be more than a sexy piece of former pro-soccer swagger with an accent that un-does buttons. Promise.

(check out those GORGEOUS flowers Steph and Isaac picked up for us at the Fremont Farmers Market last weekend in Seattle. LOVE the dahlias.)

Comment MEALS and I’ll send you my free “What I ea Comment MEALS and I’ll send you my free “What I eat in a day” to lose 25 pounds.

I had to simplify weight loss because I have so many other things I want to pour my energy into!

You see me doing a million things but I’m actually impatient and lazy. I’m a Taurus who loves to lounge and eat donuts.

I found a way to eat donuts, lose weight and do it with the least effort.

The food is easy. The prep is easy. I don’t even think about it anymore.

I started my journey in the summer and it was the best life upgrade of the year.

Follow @christinajwarren to make life easier and more enjoyable simply with your attitude.
Life has its twists and turns. Everything can chan Life has its twists and turns. Everything can change in a moment. 

All possibilities are equally available at all times. 

You have the free will to reach out and touch whichever one you choose 

There have been times when I thought gosh how did I get into this situation? 

I had to remind myself that I could get myself out of it.

I had to remind myself that I had the power to create the life that I wanted.

I hope there’s something that you want that you’ve decided to experience for yourself. 

Not someday or if this or if that.

Cheering you on, my friend!
Prepare to open your perspective and enjoy your fu Prepare to open your perspective and enjoy your full life even more:

1. Tying my worthiness to outcomes- at the end of each day I focus on how the day felt, over what got done.

There are days when I am a super DOER and I also have heartburn. 

I want less days like that and more days that feel peaceful regardless of the list.

2. Earning rest-If I feel like eating donuts and sleeping on the sofa all Saturday morning, that’s awesome. Don’t need permission and don’t need to apologize-just enjoy.

3. Saying “I should”- That’s a 100% red flag for something I SHOULDN’T do. 

That’s a signal that it’s something that someone else says I should be doing-not my inner authority.

4. Needing things to be hard- I say things like “Show me how easy this gets to be,” (and I believe it). The proof presents itself.

5. Needing it to be perfect before sharing-not that I’m sharing the hot mess, just that it can be 80% and ready for the world. 

Some things take off right away and others need tweaking. Get it out there to find out where you are at sooner.

Which rule are you breaking today?

It’s so frustrating to feel like you can’t improve It’s so frustrating to feel like you can’t improve your life. You feel like you need more- money, creativity, luck.

That’s actually not true though.

When I fall into this trap, I do this…

Here’s the trick.

When you ask yourself “why is this so hard” your brain goes to work finding every reason it is.

BUT when you ask “why is this so easy for me?” “Why is it all falling into place?”

Your brain has to find proof of that instead.

Different question. A completely different experience.

Keep asking that question all day! Stop asking “Is it working?” Just do it!

Try it on your house. Your body. Anything you’ve been stuck on and tell me what happens!

Do you use mindset tricks like this?

Follow @christinajwarren if you enjoy finding ways to be empowered in your life, no matter what is going on around you.
How many times was I going to send this listing to How many times was I going to send this listing to my friend and my husband, asking if it’s worth a 45 minute drive to go pick this up?

If I waited any longer, it was going to be gone.

But what if that was a sign that it wasn’t for me?

where was my sign from the universe?

I just knew this was going to give our family room the cozy vibe I wanted. 

Everything else in the room was new so it needed something to feel warmer, unexpected, collected and personal.

I kept holding the phone up to the couch trying to picture it.

It belonged here.

She was asking $100 and I asked if $80 would be ok. It was deal and we were off on a long trip, deep into the city.

Was this going straight to Goodwill?

She put the cutest note on top and her roommate helped up load it into our truck.

I dumped a bunch of water on it and gave it a good scrub plus some scraping off of candle wax. No problem!

Truly, what’s meant for you will never pass you by. 

When you search and shop with that vibe, all the right stuff will arrive in your feed and you’ll get the perfect piece.

No kidding, within a day of DECIDING my coffee table was going to be on Marketplace, it showed up.

If you’re into the power of your vibes creating your whole world, follow @christinajwarren where we cultivate inner peace to create a beautiful life from the inside out.
